Shell Omala S4 GX 460

Application:

Shell Omala S4 GX 460 is a fully synthetic, heavy-duty industrial gear oil specifically developed to deliver enhanced performance in enclosed gear systems exposed to extreme conditions. Previously branded as Shell Omala HD, it is ideal for systems requiring extended oil life, high load-carrying capacity, and protection against micro-pitting in applications such as wind turbines and industrial gearboxes.

Performance Features & Benefits:

• Extended Oil Life: Operates effectively at bulk temperatures up to 120 °C with high resistance to oxidation and degradation, enabling longer service intervals.
• Superior Gear Protection: Excellent micro-pitting resistance and load-carrying capability safeguard components under shock and high load conditions.
• Corrosion Control: Provides protection in contaminated systems with water and solid particles present.
• Operational Efficiency: Enhanced low-temperature performance and reduced friction improve cold starts and overall efficiency.

Main Application Areas:

• Wind turbine gearboxes and inaccessible installations requiring long oil life
• Enclosed industrial gear systems under high load and varying temperatures
• Circulating and splash-lubricated bearings and systems
• Not suitable for worm drives (use Shell Omala “W”) or hypoid gears (use Shell Spirax)
